online check in was not available so i had to get to airport extra early. The flight was delayed and my luggage was lost. I had an argument with the person behind me who wanted to keep her bag on the floor and not allow my seat to recline on a 9hr plus flight. So overall, lots and lots of areas for improvement.
The flight was operated by Lufthansa. You can't expect much from them anymore. They have a talent in getting something wrong.
The food was the worst I’ve had on any flight I’ve ever been on.
The seat and leg room was not good. The food and beverage service was good.
I didn’t get on plane. Passport being processed by consulate with visa application. Tried to cancel through underpricer after purchasing cacelling for any reason. No dice, they are thieves.
Better seating for sure. The seats were so close together for such long flights.
Wonderful and fast TSA checkpoint. The line was fast and our gate was close by
Mostly the experience was good except for the flight changes made by UA which meant longer layover in DC
We paid extra for the seats with extra leg room. But we were not allocated the seats with extra leg room nor refunded the money we paid for the seats.
Food is terrible. Flight is outdated and seats are not comfy.
Flight was delayed 3 hours and 15 minutes. The delay caused me to miss my tour group due to arriving late.
As always a terrible experience. AA stole a day from my vacation days planned to be spent with my Family. Response: delays related to weather issues.
Paid for my seat 4 months ago. Did not pay the extra for specific seat assignment ( never have and never was a problem). Could not electronically check in (found out it was due to overbooking and that unassigned seats get bumped first - never happened to me before). Luckily, did make the flight. Very stressful - would have been extremely disruptive for my travel plans. UK Visa - never notified by Kayak or BA that a visa was required. Had to spend 15 minutes to download and complete app at the flight counter and pay $25, and was told they would let me know in 3 days if I would get it (flight landing in 10 hours from when I completed app). Luckily, visa was approved before landing. Unnecessary stress created here. Food - main meal, curry chicken barely palatable with unrecognizable vegetable. Desert cup, cheesecake, also barely palatable. Salad cup was good. Small water offered only 3 times (before main meal, at main meal, at morning snack) - not nearly enough for long flight.
Boarding was not well coordinated. I asked twice at the Level check-in area about the MIA flight. At no point did they say the check-in would be at another counter. Fortunately, another passenger was equally confused and got the REAL story from the airport’s info center. Further, my minor child was tagged “SSSS” on their boarding pass. Level should have notified TSA about him being a minor. Instead, the entire family went through the SSSS process, not just our son. When his name was called out at the gate, it was announced in Spanish. No English announcement was made. The food on board was bearable. The crew was adequate, despite not being Level/Iberia crew (Level contracted out our flight to “World2Fly Airlines” - a company I have never heard of!). The onboard entertainment was very limited. They did not even offer a flight tracker option. Nor were music selections offered. Like TAP and Aer Lingus, I will think twice before booking Level ever again.
Not having to check carry on bags when plane wasn’t full. (The told us it was)
I had an issue with the name on my ticket vs my passport name. I was very upset that the Iberia ticket clerk had no authorization to help me and I was left to fix it. It took 19 calls of persons promising to accomplish and not doing anything before I reached someone who helped me in 10 minutes. Two of them even hung up on me. I missed my original flight because of this. Terrible customer service.
The crew on AA international flights in my experience are generally lazy, rude, and inefficient. These guys did not disappoint.
Flight from Madrid to Dakar had no onboard entertainment for a business class. Not even a single screen . That was disappointing. The WiFi only worked for the first 45 mins of the flight.
We upgraded to Business class paying approx. $1,300. Despite the upgrade, we were still required to pay an additional €70 for a checked bag. Furthermore, we were informed that another €70 would have been charged for our carry-on bag, as it was 3kg over the limit. To avoid this, we had to move clothing from the carry-on into the checked bag, which was both inconvenient and frustrating. Given the significant amount paid for the Business Class upgrade, we found this treatment to be quite appalling and disappointing. We expected a higher level of service and consideration for our luggage, and this experience did not meet those expectations.
Great flight, short and good attention. Didn't took any food so can't say thing about it
